New Routes Opened in Ladakh :
Shown in our Map
1. Merak - Loma Bend via Chushul (Instead of going straight from Chushul to Mahe you go left and get directly to Loma Bend. See Map 2 as well and this Route will take you over the Tsaga La Pass. (Shown in Green Colour)
2. Chushul to Mahe via Kaksang La (The official release says Kartasangla but we assume this is an error). This is the direct Route over the Changthang and takes you to Mahe (Shown in Red Colour)
3. Dubruk - Erath - Chusul and then following no.1 Route onwards to Loma bend and then onto Hanle (Shown in Blue) : Instead of the traditional Route from Dubruk to Pangong Tso this Route will take you through the Route almost parallel to that and onwards to Chushul. From Chushul onwards you follow the Route 1 again.
4. Karzok - Nurbo - Sumdo - Parangla - Kazand (Shown in Pink)

The prayer flags, which are fluttering high above the Leh city, essentially carry our prayers via the wind to get them answered. To bring the region peace, prosperity and happiness. 😊 The reason why they are put high above the roof is so that they flutter in the wind. It is said that the prayers are carried by the wind. .

Before visiting the region I used to see those coloured small rectangular peace of clothes hanging on bike and behind the cars as the peace of decorations. But our friend on the trip @jigmet.angchok.566 shared the importance of these Tibetan Prayer Flags and all the essentials of it..
.
And needless to say, I have seen Ladakh as the most peace loving, happy and blessed with the beauty of nature..😃😃 Yaa,, prayer flags are working well😇
